April Snow 1-6 2014

Well its been a very busy April for us!!!  The weekend started with our friend Jeff Wilby, being rushed to the emergency room because he thought he was having a heart attack.  It all started when he was driving a Praxair truck and became dizzy and short of breath.  He was smart enough to pull over and called 911.  After 7 days in the hospital, they concluded he did not have a heart attack.  Not sure what he has but he will never be able to drive a work truck again....bad news for him and his career at Praxair.  I think his family is relieved he didn't have a heart attack and just a bit worried he will never work again.  We love you Wilby family!!!


April 1 we had 2.5 inches of snow here in Enfield, CT.  Crazy.  Most places is melted the same day...not in Enfield.  I came home from work and had to shovel.  By the time I got home from work the next day, the snow was gone!!  Weird, snow in April!!!

Stephen spent the week in Chicago working...lots going on with his new job!  I had a busy week here in CT with house showing every other day and the opening of the golf course!  Everyone has the winter itch so we have been slammed at St. Anne Country Club!!  Its good seeing all the returning members!

After picking Stephen up from the airport, we spent the weekend in the yard trying to get all the leaves picked up.  It wasn't the warmest day, but at least no snow or rain!!  The yard and garden look decent and we got our Koi pond going. Have crocus and tulips coming up...didn't know because they were all buried under leaves.   Had a few sightings of Myrtle the Turtle and all our Koi survived the long, cold winter!!  After the outside work, we spent a few hours on the inside preparing for an open house.  I sometimes feel like I cheated because I made cookies right before the open house...the house smelt like freshly cooked cookies!!  We had 16 groups attend the open house.  Keeping our fingers crossed for a bid!!!

Next week is busy busy busy...both of us working lots of hours and we have a robotics scrimmage in Boston!!!
